Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Skydive . . . .Why you wonder???

To go and jump out of plane is not everyones idea of fun (anyone that knows me well enough will know that i'm scared of flying!!!)      

I would like to play my part in raising funds for 'Make A Wish', which is also the nominated charity for British Gas.

'Make A Wish' - What is this?

This charity grants magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threating illnesses. At present they grant around 70 wishes per month but their ambition is to grant 85 wishes per month by the end of 2012.

This is where you can help....!!!!

No matter how big / small your donation is, this will all help make a childs wish come true.

My aim is to raise a minimum of £395 by 19th August (as will be jumping out of the plane on 20th August 2011 (Weather permitting), from Nottingham Airfield (Langer).

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you for your support.

Please feel free to forward this link to anyone else that you think would like to help.

Cheers,

Heather ;-)
